Observation Paper for Equity Management
Taihessa Lee
Organizational Leadership
Professor Stephen D. Griffin
June 30, 2013
The purpose of this paper is to describe the observable aspects of my current organization’s culture. I will address my perceptions using the following three viewpoints: vision, mission and core values. I am currently employed at Equity Management Corporation, which is a leading third party management company throughout the property management industry. It is a highly competitive organization that works on creating opportunity for their employees and managing with integrity. On the grounds that I work for Equity Management I know first-hand the extent they will go to meet their expectation out of every department and one thing they will always strive to be number one in the housing market. The greater part of these things are expressed inside Equity Management’s vision and mission statement. Their vision and mission are similar as it precisely what the company does and how it plans to develop.
The Mission: Managing with integrity. The Vision: Creating opportunity. The Core Values: will focus on the heart of our company. There are many other parts of Equity. Leasing Agents are the face of Equity. Property Managers are the arms of Equity. Regional Directors represent the head of Equity. But it takes one fundamental body part to keep all this going- the heart. Ultimately, the heart has to beat to make the parts all function together. The heart is where love, care and concern reside evidenced by our commitment to the job, one another and the people we serve. As Equity pays attention to the condition of our personal and corporate heart they can experience a deeper commitment to our everyday activities. The owner’s vision is to improve the heart of Equity in a deeper way. The owner realizes that our hearts inspire us to be our best, and create loyalty in ourselves. Becoming #1 in the industry means being financially strong and growing. But being #1 is also found in a company filled with loyal employees with high integrity, stellar performance while showing you care. I have witnessed this in my current employment with Equity.
Working at the corporate office was hard for me at times because of how clan culture the company is however it likewise has numerous motivating forces as well. I started my employment with Equity Management three years prior. This employment has been assisting me to develop passionately and also professionally. They are showing me to strive to be passionately and the best constantly. The major lesson I am learning while at Equity Management is their Core Values which is the heart of an employee to keep it functioning properly.
A great deal can be learned about an organization by analyzing and exploring the various aspects of organizational observation. My observation of Equity’s leadership and organizational culture would be healthy organization culture. .

Emotional Intelligence and Motivation
The emotional intelligence of a person is composed of emotional building blocks called emotional skills. An effective manager requires these emotional skills to enhance the performance of their workforce and improve their satisfaction at the workplace. The key building blocks that boost the performance of the employees and their satisfaction at the workplace include emotional self-awareness, self-actualization, self-regard and self-perception. The management team should ensure that the workforce is motivated through job satisfaction and that they can put in more effort to ensure that the company achieves its goals and objectives (Gunu & Oladepo, 2014).
According to Goleman (1995), emotional intelligence is "the abilities such as being able to motivate oneself and persist in the face of frustrations; to control impulse and delay gratification; to regulate one's moods and keep distress from swamping the ability to think, and to emphasize and to hope." He later refined his definition in 1998 to "the capacity for organizing our own feelings and those of others, for motivating ourselves, and for managing emotion well in ourselves and in our relationships" (Goleman, 1998). He viewed emotional intelligence as a skill which is divided into two broad areas; personal competence which entails self-motivation and self-regulation. The other one is social competence which exemplifies the management of relationships, that is, social skills and compassion. Emotional intelligence is a vital skill that can influence the performance of the workforce and affect their emotions. Based on the broad research on EI, we can define it as having the ability to identify the emotion, integrate it to expedite thoughts and promote personal growth of the people.
Positive reinforcement is a tool of motivation which is a reward for doing something good. The tool is mostly utilized when an employee performs beyond the set standards of the organization. The management team can also use it by promoting competition among groups. Those groups that excel are rewarded by management, whereas most companies use bonuses to reward hard-working employees.
Negative reinforcement is also a motivation tool in the form of a penalty. Employees who fail to meet the company's expectations in form of poor performance will feel the effect of negative reinforcement. This tool can also be applied when the employees fail to execute compulsory duties at their place of work. Lastly, the tool can be applied when the company's employees break the policies and procedures of the organization. For instance, when employees fail to follow the inventory retrieval procedures, which can lead to the destruction of stock, they will be penalized.

The Terrorist, He Watches
The bomb will explode in the bar at twenty past one.
Now it’s only sixteen minutes past.
Some will still have time to enter,
some to leave.
The terrorist’s already on the other side.
That distance protects him from all harm
and well it’s like the pictures:
A woman in a yellow jacket, she enteres.
A man in dark glasses, he leaves.
Boys in jeans, they’re talking.
Sixteen minutes past and four seconds.
The smaller one he’s lucky, mounts his scooter,
but that taller chap he walks in.
Seventeen minutes and forty seconds.
A girl, she walks by, a green ribbon in her hair.
But that bus suddenly hides her.
Eighteen minutes past.
The girl’s disappeared.
Was she stupid enough to go in, or wasn’t she.
We shall see when they bring out the bodies.
Nineteen minutes past.
No one else appears to be going in.
On the other hand, a fat bald man leaves.
But seems to search his pockets and
at ten seconds to twenty past one
he returns to look for his wretched gloves.
It’s twenty past one.
Time, how it drags.
Surely, it’s now.
No, not quite.
Yes, now.
The bomb, it explodes.

· 1-According to Chapter 14, the competing values framework (CVF) provides a practical way for managers to understand, measure, and change organizational culture. There are four types or organizational culture; clan culture, adhocracy culture, market culture, and hierarchy culture. Clan culture describes companies that have an internal, family-type, focus that encourages collaboration, trust, and support to achieve effectiveness. Adhocracy culture describes companies that have an external focus on creating new products and services by being creative and adapting quickly to changes. Market culture describes companies that value stability and control. Competition drives these organizations with a high focus on customers and profits. Hierarchy culture describes companies that have an internal focus valuing stability and control over flexibility.
At my company, the elements that have the greatest influence on organizational culture are create and collaborate. Without the create element, we would remain the same and end up losing out on business because our competitors would keep moving forward while we remained the same. To remain competitive in the business we must keep up with the technological advances. Collaboration is key to keeping employees involved and motivated. The morale of the workers and the company's investment in developing them, keeps employees and their knowledge in the company and hopefully not leaving to go work for a competitor.

What These 5 Systems Of The Body Can Tell Us About Organizations
Trying to understand how organizations work is a topic of many books and articles. As these authors point out, each organization has distinct strengths, limitations, and unique processes for providing products, technology, and services. An organization may be defined as two or more people focused toward common goals. Yet as organizations become larger, the focus toward the common organizational goals becomes more departmentalized and less organizationally focused. To lose sight of the organizational goals in favor of day-to-day performance and money is a predicament for leaders. The lack of common direction causes organizations to lose time, money and customers.

Fuse/Thinkstock
Introduction Chapter 1
1.1 Introduction
Many people think management is primarily concerned with supervising employees, or that
it constitutes an obscure set of practices invented by corporate experts in high-level positions
within an organization. Some might associate management with certain entrepreneurs, such as
Andrew Carnegie, founder of U.S. Steel; John D. Rockefeller, founder of Standard Oil; Ray Kroc,
the driving force behind McDonald’s; Sam Walton, who created the Walmart empire; or others
such as Meg Whitman, former CEO of eBay and current executives in other well-known corpo-
rate giants.
Instead, a more fundamental view suggests that the management discipline consists of a set of five
specific functions: planning, organizing, staffing, leading, and controlling. These five functions
are part of a body of practices and theories carried out by successful managers. You will learn
more about these five functions in this book. We want you to understand that although research
and theory form the basis of management, a more comprehensive view includes the other prac-
tices that managers use to implement these theories. Typically, managers direct their organiza-
tions while researchers evaluate how they operate and apply various theoretical perspectives.
The analysis of individual management practices and theories can be used to create innovative
new methods, theories, and approaches. As theorists try to bring some meaning to how manage-
ment affects overall organizations, the purpose and practical applications for the various man-
agement theories are contained in the five functions. Understanding these five functions and the
underlying support theory behind them is the starting point for becoming a successful manager.
Chapter 1 introduces several important concepts of effective management and leadership. Each
concept serves as a building block to help you understand and apply the five functions of man-
agement. In this chapter, we define management and explain the nature of an organization. We
explore the nature of various types of organizations and examine historical figures along with
their contributions to management theory. The following “Management in Practice” box might
help you begin to understand the role of management in an organization’s success through the
application of the five functions.

Case Analysis - The Sky is the Limit | Principles of Management
The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.

Comparing Stability and Sustainability in Agile Systems
Copy of the presentation given at XP2024 based on a research paper.
In this paper we explain wat overwork is and the physical and mental health risks associated with it.
We then explore how overwork relates to system stability and inventory.
Finally there is a call to action for Team Leads / Scrum Masters / Managers to measure and monitor excess work for individual teams.

Leadership Ethics and Change, Purpose to Impact Plan
Create effective Business Units in your organization
- 1. Create effective Business Units in your organization! In my first article I mentioned that all big organizations have to become flexible in order to find their pace and become competitive. I concluded that the employees have to develop/gain: Flexibility, Ownership, entrepreneurial spirit & fair game skills! The next step for the organization is to build its effective Business Units which will operate as the cells in our body. Different cells have different jobs to do. Groups of different types of cells make up the organs in our body, such as our heart, liver, or lungs. Each organ has its own job to do, but all organs work together to maintain our body. A group of different organs working together to do a job makes up a system. All the systems in our body are like members of a team whose job it is to keep us alive and healthy. In the same way the members of a business unit in a company should operate. More specifically, if we assume that a FMCG company has 4 different product categories (Tissue products, diapers, feminine care products, adult care products) each category should have a Unit manager, marketing people (depending on the turnover of the category), finance manager and a sales coordinator. The organization chart could look like that CEO Business unit Mng 1 Mkg Finance Sales Business Unit Mng 2 Mkg Finance Sales Business Unit Mng 3 Mkg Finance sales Business Unit Mng 4 Mkg Finance Sales CFO HR Sales director Sales force Logistics & Planning
